}

Feature Test Example (ApiResponseTrait)

public function test_success_response_integration()
{
    $data = ['users' => [['id' => 1, 'name' => 'John Doe']]];
    $response = $this->successResponse($data, 'Users retrieved successfully');

    $this->assertInstanceOf(JsonResponse::class, $response);
    $this->assertEquals(200, $response->getStatusCode());
}
